Go below 01

Not sure where your at, this pic
is from the gold fields north of Kalgoorlie.
The leaves from the eucalyptus trees there
went 4 to 80 parts per billion AU.
good luck ickshovel: :goldnugget:

As long as you find it whichever way.

one has to ask... why that spot?

It's the high ground sloping slightly toward and parrellal with an old lead. It hasn't been surfaced, 2 Test holes above me right beside each other, the small group of holes below me, the mullock sizes that indicate shallow-ish ground, the foliation direction feeds to the lead from my holes position.
the few tiny bits I have detected off those mullocks.
Says there wasn't enough gold for them or it's hit or miss depending if you come down on to a depression in the bedrock...or not.
So the deeper I have to dig past my guess depth, the higher the possibility I'm in a depression.
That's the theory..

..

I'm trying, but I really have no idea what you guys are on about :argh: But good luck, love the updates ?

Nice going 20x. I visited the Old Chinese workings on that Point on Snowy creek again the other day had a careful look at the bedrock bars exposed in their tunnel workings. decided that a new drive at right angles to the direction the bedrock would be the best bet in the hope of picking up another buried crevise under the bank. Maybe when I retire and have time and super on my side. :/ erfect:

Hey 20x,
I did a little bit of a search and can find no such restrictions in VIC as to what we have here in QLD?
Am I right??
